Happy Birthday to this blog (Aug 5, 2015)

Hello online, blogger world :)

Newbie here, and today is the considered birthday of this blog - Aug 5, 2015. No better time to start a blog I guess, 33 might be the new 18 (or whatever random renewal age) for me is.

I go by the name of woods, Filipino dad of 2, will be 3 kids by November and married/blessed to a wonderful wife. I have never written, much less have an online or social media account. But I have always been intrigued and curious to have one. At best I troll my wife's FB to get a glimpse of common friends, feedback on pictures of my beautiful daughters :)

Recent events in my life have caused me to question, think about a lot, and figure writing my thoughts as a venue or release may be best. This can be a form of appreciation, chance to channel my energy into (who knows) something positive that I can reflect down the line. Thanks Dad for inspiring me to write as well.

I am, was never a writer per se, so please forgive me if my thoughts jump from one idea to another. I even end up writing ahead what I have on my mind, thinking or filtering it later. Hehe, I have been advised about that in my professional career earlier as well, but its difficult to change/overcome. You will also notice I have or use many words in one sentence, kind of a run on sentence to try to paint/capture the idea or picture as best I can. My reading is also limited to certain books given to me, comics/graphic novels and website searching, browsing.

So keep me grounded, keep me sane, bear with my randomness and help me become a decent (?) blogger, as I try to keep things in positive light and perspective in my life, from this day on moving forward. Its amazing how I managed to mess up my life the past months, years, and find that chances, opportunities and God manages to keep calling me back. I won't pretend to be uber or super religious at all, I am far from it, but you will find that I am (I hope) now more open and receptive to his Grace and how he plays a role in my life.

Well here goes nothing...
